In the Great Siege of Malta
the Ottomans and their magnitude
didn’t succeed anything but
to die
in front of the Knights
since their art
from 1530
that they arrived at the island
didn’t stop
to evolve
in every part
of the Mediterranean
and it is the legendary admiral
Jean Parisot de Valette
who protected
the castle of the sea
after the raids
that disturbed
so much the barbarians
so in 1565
it is the spirit
of the sea
that saved the land.
